All good things but I balk at having it called a religion. These are just innate things we should practice. I read once that the things we call 'evil' are just things we don't understand.
Good point. I have accepted the idea that there really is an evil force - which seems to be negativity. It isn't just 'that which destroys' which is the equal and opposite of 'that which creates.' I just feel that the good which I hope prevails in so many situations is up against something which pulls it apart and wants to make failure of all good intentions bring disaster about. I'm still learning about this negative evil force.
I don't know if the destructive force is really evil although my sister, who saw ghosts, definitely believed in malevolent forces as does another friend of mine. I think of the duality of nature...the building up and the breaking down. I think you have to have one to have the other. Nothing is ever lost, just transformed into something new. The goal is to keep these two forces in balance, the yin yang.
